Electronic highway vignette
The electronic highway vignette is mandatory for most vehicles traveling on toll motorways in the Czech Republic. We provide up-to-date and verified information on prices, validity periods, and easy ways to check your vignette status by your vehicle’s license plate number. Official purchases of the digital vignette are conducted exclusively through the national eDalnice system.
Which vehicles require a digital vignette?
Before entering any toll motorway section, motor vehicles with at least four wheels and a maximum authorized mass of up to 3.5 tonnes must have a valid electronic vignette. This requirement does not apply to motorcycles or trailers. Furthermore, vehicles that qualify for a statutory exemption are also not required to purchase a vignette.
Digital Vignette Types and Prices 2026
The digital vignette in the Czech Republic is available in several time-based variants. These differ in validity length and price, as set by the Ministry of Transport decree. Choosing the right type depends on your frequency of motorway use, the length of your stay, and your travel plans. The vignette price is based solely on the chosen time variant and does not depend on the distance traveled.
1-Day Digital Vignette: Designed for short-term trips, this vignette is valid for one calendar day until midnight. The price for the 1-day vignette is 230 CZK. This type is ideal for one-time transits or short visits, offering flexibility without the need for a longer commitment.
10-Day Digital Vignette: Most commonly used for holidays or longer stays. It is valid for ten consecutive calendar days, providing enough time for repeated motorway use during a single trip. The price is set at 300 CZK. This is the preferred choice for foreign tourists and occasional drivers.
30-Day (Monthly) Digital Vignette: Suitable for medium-term use, this variant is valid for thirty consecutive days. It is perfect for business trips, temporary commuting, or extended stays. The price is 480 CZK, offering more flexibility for frequent use over a month.
Annual Digital Vignette: The best option for regular drivers. It is valid for twelve months from your chosen start date (sliding validity) and allows unlimited use of toll roads. The price is 2,570 CZK. For frequent users, the annual variant offers the best value and uninterrupted access to the motorway network.
When selecting your vignette, consider your planned vehicle use. Short-term variants are great for occasional trips, while regular commuters benefit from long-term solutions. All types are time-limited and tied to the vehicle’s license plate number.
How to verify digital vignette validity
Verification of vignette validity allows you to check if a vehicle is registered in the central system as authorized to use toll motorways in the Czech Republic. Validity is always linked to a specific license plate number and the selected time period.
The electronic system uses a central database containing the license plate, vignette type, and validity period. If these details are correct and the vignette has not expired, the vehicle is considered compliant. Checks are automated using camera systems (ANPR) and mobile patrols. The decisive factor is always the status in the database at the time of the check, not a receipt or physical document.
Where to officially purchase the digital vignette
Official purchases of the electronic vignette in the Czech Republic are handled by the state-run eDalnice system, managed by public infrastructure authorities. The operation and collection of fees fall under the jurisdiction of the State Fund for Transport Infrastructure (SFDI).
Electronic vignettes are sold via the official state portal eDalnice.cz and other authorized sales points. Purchasing through official channels ensures your license plate is correctly entered into the central system and linked to enforcement mechanisms.
Important Information: This website, dalnicniznamka.cz, serves exclusively as an informational portal. It does not sell digital vignettes, does not facilitate their purchase, and does not collect any fees. Our goal is to provide clear, up-to-date information on how the system works, prices, validity, and common mistakes drivers encounter.
When purchasing a vignette, always ensure you are using an official channel. Unofficial websites may charge additional service fees or mimic the official state system. For your vignette to be valid, only the record in the official state central registry matters.
